Neither. The earth is a living organism, which people forget. The earth has been changing since it was formed. We forget where we now live was covered with ice (glaciers) in the last ice age. The earth has been extremely polluted (massive large-scale volcanic eruptions, also meteors striking and sending dust, ash and debris into the atmosphere for months or years, dulling the sunlight). The north and south poles were reversed hundreds of thousands of years ago. Sea beds have been thrust up thousands of metres and mountains have sunk beneath the sea. Central Australia and most of Canada used to be covered in enormous inland seas. Glaciers carved canyons into the face of the earth.
The earth will recover from us when our numbers significantly diminish or disappear, just as it recovered from massive toxin emmissions and damage from volcanoes and meteors during the age of the dinosaurs.

That is what Al Gore and (for the life of me can't remember his name?) are offering that reward, 'Whoever can stop the effects of global warming'. If it can be figured out to begin with.

The "state" should issue the rules and regulations based on research! There is no other solution.

Lets put it this way;
"If you let the people do what they want, you get Woodstock. If you let the government do what they want, you get Waco.

Besides the government is in bed with all the worst polluters who have been thwarting any and all efforts made to develop clean or re usable energy...Mary.

well, the government could if they would plug all the volcanoes and fissures that spout out all that bothersome pollution, stop everyone from breathing to lessen the CO2, then I would vote for the government.

Until then, forget all the political BS and just live.

It is a cyclical thing, and what is going to happen has
not really been looked into and assessed, SOMEONE
needs to look into this now, and what we can do,
as the earth is changing, and there is not going to
be anything we can do accept move, to other areas
in the case of flooding, change our lifestyles in the
case of the heat, and just generally change our
building methods in area's that are going to be
affected by weather changes, roof's need to be
strengthened in areas with heavy snowfalls, housing
in flood plains needs to be researched and changed.....
